Psychic Medium Pregnancy

I have such a funny story about my pregnancy! My great grandparents past away a few years ago and my BD grandma passed away new years of 2022. So last year I had got my period in August but missed it in September and October. I took pregnancy tests and they where negative (it was normal for me to miss a month I have PCOS) so the end of October I get a positive test but few days later miscarry. My bd and I where actively trying and wanted kids, we went through fertility clinic and did all the tests, I had to have my period induced so I could get the HSG test (I think that’s right it’s where they put the dye through your tubes) mine came back normal and I was going to start the medicated cycle in February. Well I got pregnant right after having my tubes flushed! I waited a few weeks to tell family I was pregnant and I told my mom last (don’t blast me I’m not that close with her) so when I tell my mom she freaks out and I’m like what’s wrong and she proceeds to tell me about how she went to one of those people that communicate to the dead, my grandma told her through that person that she’d be getting a grandbaby within the year it would be a libra boy! So I laughed it off because I thought those were frauds tbh😂 it all freaks me out because we where trying for a year and couldn’t get pregnant then miscarried. I took my nipts test at 10weeks and I thought I was having a girl I wanted all the sweets and fruits and smoothies etc! It came back boy!!! I was sooo shocked! I later found out my due date would be October 7th, never thought anything about it until a few weeks ago my grandma brought up my great grandmas birthday saying it was in October so I looked it up sure enough it was October 5th! I mention it to my bd how it was scary that she told my mom all this stuff through the lady and how her birthday is 2 days before my due date…. My bd face is blank and in shock I said what’s wrong he said my grandmas birthday (the one that passed on new years) is October 5th! So now we’re scared this baby will be born on October 5th😂

Is this clever or cruel?

My husband and i were talking and with social media and the internet in general being a terrifying dumpster fire, we are trying to figure out the best way to keep our son safe while still teaching him how to safely be online and moderation.

We landed on the idea of giving him the 90's kid treatment. A computer in the living room for us to keep an eye on what hes doing online, and once we feel hes mature enough to hang with friends without adult supervision he gets a flip phone. When we feel he is responsible enough and he earns and saves up the money for the physical phone, case, and screen cover, then we will be happy to take him to get a smart phone.

I thought this was air tight, but now my brother says its cruel to give a kid a flip phone, and besides he can just use his friends phones at school.

My husband and i remember a time before the internet, and we remember having complete access to something no one understood yet. We saw unspeakable things and are always battling with the urge to put the phone and social media down. I dont want that for my son, especially with his brain so vulnerable still.

Partner no longer wants baby #2

Before our son was born we originally both wanted minimum 2 kids but we were hoping for 3-4. My partner found the birth traumatic to watch and also struggled a lot with the newborn/baby stage. He no longer wants to have any more children and it’s completely breaking my heart. I need another baby. We’ve spoken about it a lot and the options. He said he wasn’t COMPLETELY closed off to it so I asked him to try and work through his feelings and reconsider his decision. He eventually said he definitely doesn’t want another. I know that I will always want one and my feelings will never change. Do we have to break up or does anyone know anything else I can do to help change his mind? Has anyone else’s partner said this and then changed their mind? I don’t want to break up because I adore him and our life together and I’d hate to split up our family for “selfish” reasons and make my son miss out on having both of us together but I just don’t know what to do

Nursery funding

My child turned 9 months last week. I applied for government funded hours nearly 2 months ago and so well within the required timeframe for the April term, however upon receiving my first invoice without the funding applied and having questioned this, I have now been informed that the stretched funding doesn’t start until 4th May.

Has anyone else been told it won’t start until May?

The government site states it should start from April 1st, and so I intentionally set my nursery start and return to work as the start of April for that reason, knowing that I wouldn’t be able to afford the nursery on my sole income without the funding

Jealous of my husband

I’m so jealous of him and it’s making me resentful. We have a ten week old and I’m jealous that he is at work all day. I’m jealous he can leave for lunch and actually eat an uninterrupted lunch. Take a phone call uninterrupted. Chat with a friend he runs in to uninterrupted. Even go to the bathroom when he wants uninterrupted. He comes home from work when he wants. He’s not on a set schedule. Some days are late some are early. It depends on when he’s done. I’m jealous he can come home at 10pm and shower, eat and go right to bed uninterrupted because I already have the baby asleep. He doesn’t have to worry about anything house wise or baby wise because I’ve done it all. Meanwhile I’m covered in puke and crap and smell like rotten milk. When he is home he is VERY active and helpful. So it’s not that. I’m just jealous his world hasn’t changed and mine has I guess. This isn’t something he’s doing wrong so I’m not sure how to get past this. I wish I could keep him home all day because that’s how helpful he is, but I understand he obv needs to work.

NHS job

Anyone work for the NHS and does 12 hour shifts? How do you work around childcare and your partners job?

He has no respect for anything to do with me.

Husband and I decided to separate 3 days ago. I've been sleeping on the floor in the kids room, and we both have to stay in the same apartment for a while. He wont stop pushing little things and I am reaching my limit. Photos in comments
